Last night's loss against the Mets was just ugly. Cole Hamels walked three batters, and each one scored. Jayson Werth made a dopey dive in the outfield trying to catch a ball, and it went right by him. Chase Utley got stuck on the grass and couldn't move his feet to make a play. Ryan Howard added an error, bringing the team's total up to 17 for the season, second only to the Pirates.
The Phils need to play better than this. Yeah, yeah, it's early, but they have not had a winning April since 2003. Their notorious slow starts hurt them every year. I hope they can turn things around in the 11 games left in the month. A win this afternoon would be a nice start. And another one tomorrow, when we get to watch a night game in the cold. Fingers crossed that the rain holds off until Monday.
